I love this idea so much!
honestly I think it makes a lot of sense. I’m not too familiar with watcher lore but I think the watchers would be the type of people to do that.
Whisper into their ear “oooh so close!” every season, “if you tried just a little harder maybe that would be you.” That cruel reminder being ever present with each and every season they place so close yet so far to being the victor, never failing to give them those bitter feelings each time memories resurface.
they’d probably take enjoyment out of the feelings they bring out in those 2nd placers, I think. probably so much more fun than tormenting the winners
Random thought by my tired, emotionally exhausted brain. Because when I'm hurting I'd rather inflict angst and pain and suffering on characters instead.
Life series AU where the losers' past failures literally come back to haunt them. A new game starts. But things aren't quite right. All the losers are being stalked by echoes of their past red lives. Like the snails, but they can be killed. But not for long. They just keep coming back no matter how many times they die. Night after night. And the closer someone came to winning, the stronger the echoes are.
The winners don't have any echoes. Winning a game brings the echoes together and merges them so they're whole again. People that consistently place low, like Jimmy or Mumbo are relatively fine since their only echoes are relatively weak. But there's no rest for people like Impulse and Ren, where the echoes are fed by the "so close" of a 2nd place. Their's are strong, bloodthirsty, and never, ever leave them alone. And they're angry over their failures.
Does it make sense? Probably not. But oh well. I'll scream to the void of tumblr anyway.
"im tired of living through major historical events" is now "dear lord please let me witness a high profile political assassination in the next 1-2 years. amen"
WHERE MY GORE LOVERS AT BABY
I never see appreciation for the bishop purgatory designs anywhere, so. I am here. To change that.
I want to see more people mess around with the designs... I want to see more people including silly headcanons and stylizing them!!! Because the designs are all amazing!! The way each design conveys how the lamb fought them is INCREDIBLE.
The top of Leshys' head is devoid of foliage because the rest of him was hidden underground during his fight. Hekets' throat and stomach are raw and skinned because she's always landing and scraping around hard on stone when she's trying to crush you. Kallamar is covered in a large burn because it's so difficult to get close to him during his fight, implying the best strategy was a long range strategy. Shamuras' front is completely torn open and hanging out because they're running directly at you during the entire fight and that is exactly! Where! You'd! Be! Hitting them!
I'm just really really passionate about the bishop purgatory designs. I want to see more people explore them I think they're so cool.
@kyoukorpse inspired me to give my period pain to narinder. Like to charge, reblog to transfer.
Happy pride and merry yurimas
I drew the Impuse giraffe and Skizz police dude because they’re so silly I love them
Reblogs are appreciated! Thanks ^^
Solitary Obsessions of Revenge. Thoughts / Psychology below
One thing observed in people (particularly prisoners) who are forced into Solitary Confinement is that they sometimes develop horrible, all-consuming obsessions with one specific feeling or thing. I learned this from my therapist, who explained that this can be... literally anything. From obsessing over the feeling of your bladder being empty to hyper focusing on the feeling of pain. These obsessions occur due to the brain attempting to create stimuli in any way it can. When you are deprived of anything 'new' your brain has to Make 'new' things for it to experience. All of this is to say I think the idea of Narinder having this same desperate focus on his anger and need for revenge would make sense.
Especially because being in solitary confinement essentially rots away at the parts of your brain that store memories. I'm not an expert, don't quote me, but I believe the reason is because those pathways just aren't being recalled. So they degrade over time, and you lose access to that skill. Recalling past events becomes really difficult, and-- imagining this with Narinder-- this could be a reason he sees his siblings in SUCH a negative light. Even sparing their betrayal, he may not remember many happy times with them at all. Only the painful parts. (Which is a neat and horrible parallel to Shamura. Ouch.)
On that note, I've heard people describe Narinder as 'cold and calculating' but I think this isn't true, personally. He's always read to me as a more 'do then think' kind of person-- Specifically in the situation he's in. Which makes sense, following my narrative. He's been trapped for hundreds of years to the point where all he cares about is the ending of his siblings lives. It's not cold revenge, it's desperate, clawing, NEED to see them gone. A mind fueled by a thousand years of solitary torture isn't a reasonable one. I think theres a lot of pain and hurt that needs to be reconciled within himself until he can feel like a person who doesn't desire revenge and bloodshed to keep going.
